Who he was
Miyamoto Musashi was a Japanese swordsman who said he won more than sixty duels, the first at thirteen. The most famous, by later accounts, was in 1612 on the island of Ganryūjima, where he struck down Sasaki Kojirō with a wooden sword carved from an oar.
He fought with two swords at once and founded his own school. In his last years he wrote The Book of Five Rings and made ink paintings still prized in Japan. He died in 1645.
